Fall is closing in on winter and soon the ground will be covered in a white blanket of snow. Winter brings with it the stillness of life, the slowing down to relax, restore and just being. Poetry has a ring of music to it and produces a wide range of emotions with few words and for me… the ring of truth. This made me put together a list of great poems that I have enjoyed over the years.

So….here’s my 2 cents on great poems that stand out.
